Sometimes it isn’t possible to achieve the ideal amount of bed time, perhaps due to work or family commitments (we’ve all been there!) however frequent sleepless nights can have a variety of negative health effects.
Specifically, too little sleep can lead to energy problems throughout the day, which can impair your judgment and is potentially very dangerous if you’re working, for example.
